Chapter 331: The Ghost Doctor Has Arrived
"I have no way of knowing this. I heard it from other people. I heard that this ghost doctor is strange and cold. Nobody knows what kind of person he really is."
Ye Qing shrugged and explained to her in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi gave him a light glare: "Don't talk nonsense. Since you haven't met Senior Brother, don't talk nonsense. You should get some rest."
"Yes!"
The thought that the other party was the prince's lifeline brought Ye Qing back to her senses, and she hurriedly lowered her head.
Seeing this, Lin Rusi patted his shoulder, but didn't rush back to her room.
She let out a long sigh, feeling much more relieved.
Although she didn't know much about that senior brother, he must have quite a few skills to become Tian Lingzi's disciple.
Now she can rest assured.
However, Lin Rusi couldn't help but frown when she thought of Li Jingyang's situation.
what is happening?
What could make his symptoms so strange?
Filled with doubt, Lin Rusi stayed by Li Jingyang's side for the next few days.
However, his condition did not improve, which made Lin Rusi increasingly worried.
That day, she stayed by Li Jingyang's bedside, taking his pulse.
Just then, a sound came from the doorway.
Lin Rusi turned her head and saw Ye Qing standing at the door, with some hesitation in his eyes.
Seeing his appearance, Lin Rusi paused and tiptoed out the door: "What happened?"
"Your Highness, His Highness is probably unable to handle the situation in Danzhou right now. We can only trouble you with this task. However, the foreign princes have recently rebelled, and if no one is there to deal with the situation in Danzhou..."
Ye Qing, his face full of worry, recounted the situation in a low voice.
Lin Rusi pursed her lips slightly, and after a long while, she spoke again: "Have someone stay behind to keep an eye on my senior brother's news. I'm going to find General Li, and we'll set off tomorrow."
"Yes!" Ye Qing replied and quickly left.
Watching his retreating figure, Lin Rusi frowned, turned around, and went back to her room to tidy up.
The next day, the group left together and headed to Danzhou.
At this time, the situation in Danzhou was extremely complicated.
As soon as they arrived at their destination, Lin Rusi noticed that the entire Danzhou was shrouded in a strange atmosphere.
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Danzhou, many soldiers were probing something.
Upon entering the city, General Li hurriedly led his men to begin setting up defenses.
However, the enemy seemed to have discovered something amiss in the city, and the area below the city walls immediately began to stir.
Lin Rusi stood atop the city wall, looking down at the enemy army not far away, her face solemn.
Before long, before she could come up with a good way to resist the enemy...
Ye Qing hurriedly appeared at the end of the city wall, followed by an indifferent man.
Lin Rusi looked up and met the man's gaze.
"Senior Brother?" Lin Rusi asked tentatively. The man nodded but didn't say anything more.
Seeing this, she finally smiled and quickly stepped forward.
"Senior brother, I'll leave His Highness's matter to you."
Lin Rusi asked anxiously, biting her lower lip lightly.
The man, a ruthless man of few words, simply nodded silently upon hearing this: "Let's go, I'll go check on that person."
Given the current situation in Danzhou, Lin Rusi dared not allow Li Jingyang to appear in Danzhou so openly.
Who knows how many people are watching them?
Hearing the Ghost Doctor's voice, she hurriedly nodded, first looking around warily, then whispered, "Senior brother, come with me."
She hid Li Jingyang in an extremely secluded place and ordered many guards to protect him.
Despite remembering the way, Lin Rusi still led the Ghost Doctor around for nearly half an hour before finally reaching their destination.
At this moment, Li Jingyang's condition seemed to have worsened considerably.
Even without the Ghost Doctor saying it, Lin Rusi could tell that his condition was extremely poor.
She frowned deeply, and after a long while, she leaned closer to ask, "Senior brother..."
After quickly examining Li Jingyang's condition, the Ghost Doctor remained silent for a moment, then turned and took out a piece of paper from the side, quickly writing a line of text.
"Get everything ready, including hot water and gauze, then go outside and wait."
He slightly moved his lips and expressed all his needs.
Upon hearing this, Lin Rusi did not delay and quickly had the items prepared.
Having obtained what he needed, the Ghost Doctor moved even faster, the room filled with the aroma of herbs and the stench of blood.
"Senior Brother, do you need my help?"
She was genuinely worried, and knew she shouldn't have offered any advice at this time.
As expected, the senior brother didn't even turn his head.
Seeing this, Lin Rusi could only obediently quiet down.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but when Lin Rusi came to her senses again, the Ghost Doctor had already completed all the procedures.
Seeing his expression, Lin Rusi cursed herself for not paying attention and quickly stepped forward: "Senior brother, thank you for your hard work, are you done yet?"
As she spoke, she hurried forward.
Upon hearing her question, the Ghost Doctor simply turned around and glanced at her, gesturing for her to go inside.
She hurried inside, and sure enough, the man on the bed was much better.
Although her face was still pale, her breathing had become steady.
She couldn't wait to check Li Jingyang's pulse. Although it was still a little weak, it was much better than before; at least, it wasn't so bad.
"Asi..."
Li Jingyang's voice was hoarse, and he spoke with some difficulty.
Hearing the voice, Lin Rusi's eyes instantly reddened: "You should rest well. It was Senior Brother who saved you this time."
The Ghost Doctor stood not far away, looking completely indifferent.
It was as if he wasn't the one who had just saved the person.
Li Jingyang slightly raised his eyes and coughed twice: "Thank you, Senior Brother."
"No need. I'm only doing this for Master's sake. Besides, you're only out of danger now, there's nothing more I can do for you."
The Ghost Doctor didn't say much, only offering a low-pitched reminder.
But Li Jingyang was still grateful: "It was my senior brother who saved me, thank you senior brother."
"You should get some rest."
After saying that, the Ghost Doctor shifted his gaze to Lin Rusi: "Come with me."
Lin Rusi wiped away her tears, quickly tucked the blanket around Li Jingyang, and then followed the Ghost Doctor out the door.
The two walked a little further away before they started talking.
Lin Rusi thought that her senior brother probably had something he didn't want Li Jingyang to know, so she asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, what do you want to tell me?"
"I heard that you stayed for the sake of the people of Danzhou, and that person was injured for the sake of the people of Danzhou?"
The Ghost Doctor's seemingly random statement left Lin Rusi somewhat puzzled.
She frowned, somewhat puzzled: "Senior brother... what do you want to say?"
He paused for a moment before adding, "It's nothing much, but with war about to begin, the people will likely be displaced. I want to remind you to prepare in advance."
Lin Rusi was somewhat surprised by what her senior brother said.
She hadn't expected that this senior brother wasn't as cold as the rumors suggested.
After all, if someone were truly so indifferent, how could they possibly care about the well-being of ordinary people?
Thinking of this, Lin Rusi nodded and made a promise: "Don't worry, senior brother. Since I have chosen to stay, I will never let the people get hurt. I will do my best."
Her expression was resolute as she made her promise in a low voice.
The Ghost Doctor stared at Lin Rusi for a long time, seemingly lost in thought. After a while, still feeling uneasy, he took a letter out of his pocket.
As he spoke, his expression became somewhat unnatural: "I didn't originally intend to give it to you, but I did it for my master's sake!"
Lin Rusi smiled, unsure whether this senior brother was just being stubborn or what.
But it doesn't matter, at least he seems to have a good heart.
So she didn't stand on ceremony with the ghost doctor and accepted the envelope.
Along with the envelope, several bottles of pills were also handed over.
The instructions for use and dosage were already clearly marked on the pills. Lin Rusi was somewhat taken aback: "Senior brother, what is this...?"
"If you encounter a critical situation here and don't know what to do, you can open it and take a look. As for the pills..."
